WOC: Holiday/Glamourdaze

Guess my fedora will be staying on my head....LOL

So this is what had happened, right. LOL! I ordered the Mineralize Brush Kit and now have a Stolen moment BU. I blame Medgal! She got me with the matching brush kit and travel bag. The Stolen Moment BU was the accidental extra I purchased, but now I've decided to keep it. I'm also considering a Round Midnight BU. Funny how I was originally going to skip that one. Ready to Party might get a BU as well and I want to swatch Impossibly Sweet Lipglass to see if it's worth getting. Your fedora is safe and secure, Medgal.

Thanks for the info! But I don't see the plug-in. What is it located next to? :-(

It's in the upper right corner to the right of the thread title. It's called Recent Images In This Thread. You're right in that I don't think it was there before. I'm not sure if there needs to be a certain number of pictures for it to appear or what. If you go to the main thread, you'll see it. Click on it and you'll see all the pictures/swatches that have been uploaded to the thread.

Lol again @ Ashy Larry! That clip just cracks me up.

~trembling~ I will not buy the brush set, I will not buy the brush set.. Thank God that travel bag is sold out. I did want to go back for Superb. Now I see I need to get E/S bakcups.

But I need boots!!! ~stomps foot~ And of course I've seen FIVE pairs I want. Sigh. There's not enough money.

Thankfully, I'm not buying again until 11/23, can skip most of Apres Chic.

Small Vanity is not anything like a Mineralize. It's nearly matte (maybe a subtle sheen)...


The rest of the swatches from my collection choices are on my blog. Location in my siggy.

Thanks for the swatch! I've since gotten my Small Vanity and I love it almost as much as my Pressed Amber. I was referring to the color, in terms of any likenesses/similarities between the two blushes. I think I was originally intrigued by the color descriptions of Small Vanity & Pressed Amber, dusty rose & mélange, nude, beige etc., respectively. I had a few reservations but now I'm really glad I got Small Vanity....so pretty!

I'm pretty happy with Small Vanity. It's a great neutral blush on me. The color may be distorted b/c I haven't washed my brush and had been using Hidden Treasure. Moreso yesterday than today. Today I felt like I had to pile it on to get color payoff and I'm not that dark. I'm used to using NARS though so maybe it's just a pigmentation thing I'm not used to.

I need to put on my Notable because from memory I don't remember it being anything like SV. Notable seems more pink from my memory!

kimbunney,

Notable is one of my absolute favorite blushers from MAC! I love that one! (along with Pinch Me!)
I wear it alot!

I seriously need to pull my Notable out asap you ladies are making me think I'm super crazy because I don't think I've put it on all year long! That's so sad! I'm going to make it a point to put it on in the morning.

But today I'm wearing SV and its pure love! I'm the One is also great, very WOC friendly. I got Easy Manner to its very buildable and you have to buff it in for a cute pinky cheek, I don't think its a "must".

Do any of you ladies have brush recommendations for the EDES and EDSF? I'm wearing A Natural Flirt today, but I didn't feel like I was getting any color on my eyes. I have and old Sephora brush set and will be working on updating my brushes soon.

I have recently fallen in love with the 215. I initially started using it to apply pigments but have since used it for EDES, as well. I think it picks up product nicely and it's large enough to make the application process faster. The 130 has worked well for me with EDSF and MSFs.

In my opinion the winners from this collection are Outrageously Fun lipstick, I love this lipstick!! Beauty, Glamour Daze and Dramatic Encounter if you want that dark lip for fall. The blushes I'm the One and Small Vanity! Whisper of Guilt EXDMSF!

 

[kimbunney]

What liners have you ladies been using Beauty lipstick with? I'd love to see some looks if ya'll want to post some.

I got all of the GD lipsticks except Beauty! Have I missed out here? Oh no

Licks wound
It seems that Cork is the popular liner with lighter shades.

Thank you! I am so unskilled when it comes to application.

Shout out to ALL you ladies who recommended Small Vanity. I have been werking this color! It's a great neutral and perfect for the no makeup look. Wore it last night when I went to see someone interesting so I could play like I wasn't wearing anything and was just naturally gorgeous. Haha! You know how we do. Brown eyeliner, curled lashes, neutral blush, beige eye shadow, and plenty o' gloss.

so proud of myself, walked into nordies and only got the two for one mascaras and did not go by glamourdaze or chanel. I did buy boots, and a coat though. SMH But I struggled with the purchase. I can drop $200 on makeup, but not on anything else. Something is wrong. LOL

The 215 and 130 would be my recs as well. I bought the 215 specifically to use with the EDES and the L'Oreal Infallible shadows. The brush is really dense so it picks up the product well. I use the 130 for EDSF for the same reason, it's dense. It's also small enough to target specific areas. I've seen the 128 mentioned as well, but haven't tried it. Nordstrom still has it.
